International education – Don’t forget about non-mobile students

By Hans de Wit – in University World News.

Erasmus report fuels internationalisation debate.

The recent Erasmus impact study provides food for debate on what makes for positive study abroad experiences. It also shines a light on the issue of how to make the benefits of internationalisation available to all students.

Hans de Wit argues that while the recent Erasmus impact study confirms the multiple benefits of study abroad, this should not distract from internationalising the curriculum and learning outcomes for non-mobile students.
